Just after 7 PM, the draft broadcast began.
First up were the images of the Green Room invitees and their friends and families entering Madison Square Garden.
Harden asked, "Jack, why didn't I see you entering the basketball Mecca during your draft year?"
Zhang Yang replied, "I want to kill you with a stool."
Harden said, "Why hit me? I haven't provoked you guys lately, have I?"
DeRozan immediately steered the conversation back on track, "Jack didn't get into the Green Room."
Harden asked, "Oh... cough cough, DeMar, do you think we'll make it in the future?"
DeRozan said, "Yes."
Zhang Yang said, "I curse you to pull a groin on the day of the draft."
DeRozan: "..."
Harden said, "Jack, of all things to curse us with, a groin pull? I've had that injury before, and it's very uncomfortable climbing stairs. The way I walked right after the injury was so embarrassing. How do you expect me to go up on stage and shake hands with Stern?"
